Questions and Answers

What is the phenomenon in which a changing magnetic field in a circuit induces an electromotive force (emf)?

  • Ohm's law of electromagnetic induction
  • Ampère's law of electromagnetic induction
  • Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction (correct)
  • Gauss's law of electromagnetic induction

What happens to the induced emf in a coil when the rate of change of magnetic flux through it increases?

  • It increases (correct)
  • It becomes zero
  • It remains constant
  • It decreases

In electromagnetic induction, Lenz's law states that the direction of the induced current in a circuit is such that it:

  • Opposes the change in magnetic flux producing it (correct)
  • Is independent of the change in magnetic flux
  • Supports the change in magnetic flux producing it
  • Is perpendicular to the change in magnetic flux

Study Notes

Electromagnetic Induction

  • The phenomenon in which a changing magnetic field in a circuit induces an electromotive force (emf) is called electromagnetic induction.
  • Electromagnetic induction occurs when there is a change in magnetic flux through a circuit.

Induced EMF

  • When the rate of change of magnetic flux through a coil increases, the induced emf in the coil also increases.
  • The magnitude of the induced emf is directly proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux.

Lenz's Law

  • Lenz's law states that the direction of the induced current in a circuit is such that it opposes the change in magnetic flux that induces it.
  • The induced current flows in a direction that generates a magnetic field that counteracts the original change in magnetic flux.
